I wonder when then masses of mis-uses of this particular phrase will take over, and it will be accepted as meaning "which brings up a good question" or something along those lines. I hear it used that way much more often than the "right" way - by sheer numbers that should probably become the accepted meaning. (Not that I'm advocating for mis-use of words and phrases, but there's certainly precedent for the mis-uses to become accepted uses!)
